2. Place the Chainsaw on a solid, level surface.
3. Use only genuine Kress chains or those
recommended for the Guide Bar.
4. Slide the chain in the slot around the guide bar.
Ensure the chain is in correct running direction by
comparing it to the chain icon, or referring to the
chain direction symbol found on the saw body.
5. Fit the chain onto the drive sprocket, so that the
two bar locating studs on the bar pad fit into the
keyway of the opening on the guide bar. Ensure
that the chain tension hole fits on the chain
tension pin.(See Fig. A2).

6. Ensure all parts are seated properly and hold
chain and guide bar in a level position. Make sure
the drive links are fully seated in the drive sprocket
(See Fig. A3), avoiding a kink as shown in Fig. A4.
If kink occurs, pick up on the chain at the guide
bar just ahead of the kink and then pull the kink
out.
